The length of a side of the original square is about 12 inches.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let x represent the length of the original square, hence:

Area = x * x = x²

When the area is doubled:

2x² = (x + 6)(x + 4)

x² + 10x + 24 = 2x²

x² - 10x - 24 = 0

x = 12 inches

The length of a side of the original square is about 12 inches.

Or a very large set of data the measured mean is found to be 288.6 with a standard deviation of 21.2. assuming the data to be no
SashulF [63]

The 68-95-99.7 rule tells us 68% of the probability is between -1 standard deviation and +1 standard deviation from the mean. So we expect 75% corresponds to slightly more than 1 standard deviation.

Usually the unit normal tables don't report the area between -σ and σ but instead a cumulative probability, the area between -∞ and σ. 75% corresponds to 37.5% in each half so a cumulative probability of 50%+37.5%=87.5%. We look that up in the normal table and get σ=1.15.

So we expect 75% of normally distributed data to fall within μ-1.15σ and μ+1.15σ

That's 288.6 - 1.15(21.2) to 288.6 + 1.15(21.2)

Answer: 264.22 to 312.98
